Is it possible to let the puppy come to visit him often until you actually bring the pup home? This way, they can start getting used to each other.
I had Jake for a year when I brought Jackson home. Actually, we took Jake with us to pick Jackson up at the breeders. Jake didn't like Jackson at first. He was very jealous and used to having mommy to himself. We just kinda let them get to know each other in their own way. They were both a little intimidated at first, but before we knew it, Jake wasn't jealous anymore and Jackson was his best friend.
It might be hard in the beginning, but I bet if the two dogs are just given some time, they will become friends in no time! I had to pay lots of extra attention to Jake at first because I didn't want him to feel left out. It just takes a little time. Good luck! |
